Amazing place to stay, very stylish and atmospheric. The staff were superb and when they realised we would be checking out before breakfast they offered to put some breakfast in the fridge in the room for us so we could have it before we left....
Bally
United Kingdom United Kingdom
The hotel was wonderful, not easy to reach with suitcases or if you had a pushchair. The staff were very friendly and approachable and did everything possible to make our stay as easy as possible. They even prepared our breakfast the night before...

The family room is gigantic. We had everything we needed and it was a very special and authentic experience.
Gita
United Kingdom United Kingdom
We absolutely loved this place! We came as a family of 4 with my 2 daughters aged 5 and 7. My 7 year old says it's her favourite place on our 2 week Italian holiday and wants to come to stay every year! The cool inside the cave was a welcome oasis...

Property information

It took 7 years to make these ruins what they are today: a place emebedded in the rock where peace and quietness reign undisturbed. Le Dodici Lune is located in the heart of the Sassi of Matera, declared UNESCO heritage in 1993; it is the ideal place to sink into a striking landscape traveling through time and history, thanks to the owners’ storytelling. Our guest house is restored with special care respecting all the structural features of an hypogeum. It has seven rooms completely excavated below ancient Longobard walls. The rooms, ancient cave dwellings, overlook on the “vicinato”, the common area where people used to spend their time. From an ancient wine cellar completely dug by hand, used for wine production which then became a house, an elegant restaurant has been obtained for celebrating special events.
